During this challenging time, we at Beth Emeth will strive to continue running our morning and evening services, to ensure there is a minyan available for those who wish to say kaddish, while adhering to all public health regulations and standards of social distancing.
However, we also recognize and respect that there are many who MUST NOT attend services, either due to personal vulnerabilities or discomfort coming to a public location, like shul, during this time.
There have therefore been challenges making a minyan on a number of recent occasions. As such, until further notice, we will only offer ONE MORNING MINYAN at 7:45am effective immediately. Please understand that the situation is fluid and may change at any time.
If you are saying kaddish and are unable to be part of a minyan, Rabbi Morrison has provided a version of kaddish that is appropriate to be said without a minyan present, available here.We will also continue to livestream our services on our facebook page.
Beth Emeth's senior leadership is continuing to monitor events and will continue to keep you informed regarding the risks of COVID-19 to our community.
